The labour party look weak for various reasons but mostly Corbyn's personality. Even in a remainer coalition with liberal democrats and scottish national party, I think he'll struggle to win the next election.

Boris and the brexiteers will probably win. Which will mean ramping up xenophobia and increased scapegoating of self-invented 'british muslim' community.

“He’s a great source of pride for us,” said Satilmis Karatekin, 65, who claims to be a distant cousin of the Conservative Party leadership candidate. “For us, he is a Turk from Kalfat and we will always consider him one of us.”

Quote

Four generations ago, Mr Johnson’s ancestor, Haci Ahmet Riza Efendi, was a successful merchant who moved from Kalfat to Istanbul in the late 1800s. His son Ali Kemal – Mr Johnson’s great-grandfather – was born in the Ottoman capital.

The family retained links to their home, the ruins of which can still be found in Kalfat, but Ali Kemal went on to develop international ties as a journalist, diplomat and, briefly, a minister in the government of the empire’s last sultan.

He was educated in Europe, where he met Winifred Brun, an Anglo-Swiss woman he married in London in 1903. Six years later, Mr Johnson’s grandfather Osman Wilfred Kemal was born, but Brun died shortly afterwards.

Leaving his son and daughter to be raised by his mother-in-law, Margaret Johnson, in England, Ali Kemal returned to Turkey before the start of the First World War.

He later served as a minister to Mehmed VI, but as Turkey fought for its independence, Ali Kemal, who backed a British protectorate, fell foul of nationalist sentiment. While travelling to Ankara to stand trial in 1922, he was dragged off a train and killed by a mob.

His son, who had adopted his grandmother’s surname to become Wilfred Johnson, was brought up in south-west England, where Mr Johnson’s father Stanley was born in 1940.

That FATHER SIDE RELIGIOUS GENETICS.... how about mother side ... grandmother side Maternal religious genetics?? ..

well there is Muslim in every one but let us learn a bit more on that first Muslim prime minister of UK ....

Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson, (born June 19, 1964, New York City, New York, U.S.), American-born British journalist and Conservative Party politician who became prime minister of the United Kingdom in July 2019.. As a child, Johnson lived in New York City, London, and Brussels before attending boarding school in England. He won a scholarship to Eton College and later studied classics at Balliol College, Oxford, where he was president of the Oxford Union. After briefly working as a management consultant, Johnson embarked on a career in journalism. He started as a reporter for The Times in 1987 but was fired for fabricating a quotation. He then began working for The Daily Telegraph, where he served as a correspondent covering the European Community (1989–94) and later as an assistant editor (1994–99). In 1994 Johnson became a political columnist for The Spectator, and in 1999 he was named the magazine’s editor, continuing in that role until 2005. [/quote] well that is his brief story...Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson.... NOT A RIGHT NAME A MUSLIM GUY .. so let us change his name either to ..Ali Boris de Pfeffel Johnson... or to ..Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Muahmmad Johnson...

that is a better name to make him remember bit of his past.. being a journalist most of his life he wrote plenty of article., so let me put some links of what "Alexander Boris de Pfeffel MuahmmadJohnson" wrote here.. in Short let me call him BMJ .... Borris Muhammad Johnson....

In fact Muhammad is a wonderful word in Arabic... which essentially means A leader.. A leader in the field He/She working.. Even women could use that word "Muhammad.. in their name...

he says whatever is politically expedient at the time, and has no beliefs of his own.

Say anything to win over target vote banks? Yes, pretty much. Anti-immigrant rhetoric is probably on standby for closer to the election. Of course, that will include some cynical islamophobia to tip the balance.

Quote from:

Over the last few weeks, the Prime Minister has made a raft of promises including tens of thousands of new police officers and extra cash for the justice system.

Professor of politics at Queen Mary University of London, Tim Bale, told Metro.co.uk: ‘A lot of this is smoke and mirrors and very little of it is based on real evidence.’

But he added: ‘Large numbers of people take a pretty hardline approach to crime and punishment. ‘This will appeal not just to Tory voters but also to a lot of floating voters and people who support the Brexit Party.’

Today’s Supreme Court decision is bigger than Brexit. We are now in a civil war without bullets – between two sides who both claim to be fighting for democracy but who have very different ideas of what it entails. In the one corner are those who believe that democracy is where the electorate vote for something in a plebiscite and then government carries out its instructions; in the other corner are those who believe that democracy is Parliament and the courts acting together in what they see as the best interests of the people.

As I have written here before, the correct term for what the latter group advocate, and what was demonstrated in the show of power by the Supreme Court this morning is Kritarchy, rule by judges. Maybe there is an argument to be made for a system of government which involves token input from the general public but in which the real power rests with a parliament and judiciary acting in accordance with human rights charters and the like. Trouble is, I think it might be a bit of a hard sell to the half of Britain which feels increasingly outraged at the way the referendum vote to leave the EU is stealthily being put aside.

barnier and boris have negotiated a brexit deal. now up to parliament to approve or scupper.

Quote from:

First, EU regulations will apply to all goods in Northern Ireland. This means checks at the border.

Second, NI will remain in the UK’s customs territory. It will therefore benefit from UK trade policy. But it will remain an entry point into the single market. So UK authorities will apply UK tariffs to countries coming from third countries as long as goods entering NI are not at risk of entering the single market. If they are at risk of entering the single market, EU tariffs will apply.

Third, on VAT, the plan will maintain the integrity of the single market, while respecting the UK’s digital wishes.

And, fourth, there will be a consent mechanism. Four years after the arrangements starts, the Northern Ireland assembly will decide by a simple majority if these arrangements stay.

winter is coming... but who will sit on the brexit throne on dec 13th?

Quote from:

Labour is set to lose nearly half of its vote across the Midlands according to a major new opinion poll.

In the West Midlands, Labour's support has fallen from 43% in 2017 to just 23% now. There is a similar fall in the East Midlands - from 41% to 22%.

But the Conservatives have also slipped back. In 2017, they picked up more than half of all votes cast in the East Midlands. That's now down to around 45%. And there was a similar decline in the West Midlands.

There has been a dramatic improvement in the fortunes of the Liberal Democrats in the last two years, trebling their support to 14% in the West Midlands and 15% in the East, although that's only likely to win them one new seat in the region - at Cheltenham.

Coming in fourth place in both Midlands' polls is the Brexit Party with 12% ... a significant level of support which could be distorting the polling of both main parties.

British Muslims say they fear that ‘hate crime and anti-Muslim racism will go unchallenged’ after the prime minister went back on his pledge to hold an inquiry into Islamophobia in the Conservative Party.

The Muslim massiv up north only have themselves to blame for the shitty reputation of the 'community'. I mean for fucks sake, the grooming of thousands of girls on an industrial scale? I don't believe that Islamophobia or anti-Muslim bigotry is an isolated issue. It's a reaction

his article is out-of-date, the despised riff-raff now increasingly vote tory.

Quote from:

Johnson, who was a Conservative MP and editor of the Spectator magazine at the time, wrote in the Telegraph in 2005 that poorer voters who live on "run-down estates," only continued to vote for Labour due to the "deluded hope of bigger hand-outs."

He added that this "bottom" one-fifth of British citizens "supplies us with the chavs, the losers, the burglars, the drug addicts and the 70,000 people who are lost in our prisons and learning nothing except how to become more effective criminals."
